I remember that the capitol building is beautiful and how unpretentious the governor's home is. The governor's mansion in Atlanta is a little ridiculous, in my opinion, especially since we're paying for it.<br /><br />Very interesting about the 1st Special Service Force. I found, in general, that the north and the west are more patriotic than the south. That's a broad brush, I know, but it seems that way to me.Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371157074687319596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2639565805712793802.post-21454550361669583382014-08-11T12:35:40.069-06:002014-08-11T12:35:40.069-06:00Nice article about them and what they were about. ...Nice article about them and what they were about.
